The cultivation of jute in India is mainly confined to the eastern region of the country . The jute crop is grown in nearly 83 districts of seven states - West Bengal , Assam , Orissa , Bihar , Uttar Pradesh , Tripura and Meghalaya . West Bengal alone accounts for over 50 percent raw jute production.

Some steps have been taken to overcome some of the problems of the jute industry. They are:

To improve the quality of jute goods improved varieties of jute are being cultivated, implemented by “The Jute Development Board”.New machines have been set up to modernize the jute mills with the help of government loan.Export duty has been decreased to increase the export of jute products and jute “Export Promotion Committee” has been set up.To increase the demand and market for jute and jute-allied products research has been initiated so that besides the traditional jute bags, ropes, gunny bags etc. new products are made e.g. – jute textile, paper, carpet, decorative items etc.To increase the domestic use of jute products, thereby increasing the domestic market of jute products, the govt. has started to make it mandatory for the cement and other industries to use gunny bags.

In this way government policy and environment conscious citizens may cause an increase in the demand for jute products. Thereby the expanding market of the jute industry will save it from glut.
